I believe very much so in miracles, although they are very rare...

Yes, but you can see the North Pole, visit it, etc. It's very much something that's real and defined. There IS a north pole.

Also, your reply is kind of a tangent from the original post / what you quoted. He never said anything about "not seeing miracles" so I'm not sure why you replied with what you said.

Could you also give me an example of what you consider a "miracle?" Do not quote a bible, I mean like, something you'd see while walking down the street, in today's times, etc.

Sorry, I think your mistaking me for someone who believes in miracles.

Where you getting that from?

(I don't believes in miracles)

To weird people, an unlikely or near impossible happening is a miracle. If you were to roll 10 dice and have each of them be 6, would that be a miracle just because it was unlikely?

Well, if you had read the post, you'd see I wasn't talking to you.

The real question is, where did you get THAT FROM?

Unless you also go by solja247.
I like the way you think!
...But please stop thinking, it's not you.

Some would say yes. They are commonly known as idiots.

I can't see why it's so hard to explain to some people that any arbitrary collection of 10 rolls has the same probability of occurring than 10 6's - and even the ones who get this principle clearly fail to apply it, siting the improbability of an earth-like planet arising naturally...
